Welcome to This Episode of The Bible Project Daily Podcast

Episode Title: What Did the Reformers Get Right? (Joshua 8:30-35)

Episode Summary:

In this episode, we explore the significance of making God’s Word publicly accessible and understood—a conviction shared by both Joshua and the Reformers.

Before the printing press, Scripture was rare, and most people relied on public readings and oral teachings. We trace this historical necessity back to Moses and Joshua, who displayed God’s Word publicly, ensuring it was central to the life of the people. Likewise, the Reformers, such as William Tyndale, fought to make Scripture available and understandable to everyone.

Yet, while we now live in a time when the Bible is more accessible than ever before, biblical literacy is at an all-time low. This episode challenges us to go beyond merely owning a Bible and instead ensure that we read, understand, and live by it.

Key Themes Discussed:

The role of Scripture before the printing press
How Moses and Joshua ensured God’s Word was publicly available
The Reformers’ battle for access to and proper understanding of the Bible
The danger of biblical neglect in the modern age
The importance of hearing, studying, and applying God’s Word in our daily lives

Key Scripture References:

Deuteronomy 27:1-4 – Moses commands that God’s law be inscribed on stones
Joshua 8:30-35 – Joshua publicly displays and reads the law
1 Timothy 4:13 – Paul’s instruction to Timothy about public Scripture reading
Hebrews 10:25 – The command not to neglect assembling together
2 Timothy 3:16-17 – The role of Scripture in equipping believers

Call to Action:

Prioritize hearing and studying Scripture regularly
Share this podcast with others who need to hear the message
Reflect on whether you are merely possessing the Bible or truly living by it
